Greenhorn Creek just just a few miles up the road from home. Pictures quality kinda sucks...Just dug my camera out of a moving box and need to re-familiarize myself with it's settings.

Video-

HD if you select it. All three of these videos show how badly I need a stabilizer or hydraulic assist steering...front tires wobble around pretty good. :eek1::haha:

Pretty hard to get decent video when you're by yourself...lots of walkin around. :haha:

Thanks for the props. :D

I was a little disappointed with my camera.... It's just a point and shoot, but a $300 12.2mp touch screen Sony. I think I've got it figured out though. I had it on something called "intelligent auto-adjustment". I think it just couldn't figure out what mode to settle on...most of the time it was on landscape mode. Oh well, now I know.

I've gotta find the book/manual for this thing. :doah:
 
Pics don't look bad, just a little underexposed. You could fix that really easy with photoshop or whatever program you choose. Snow is tough to shoot because it's so bright/white and it tends to confuse cameras that are set on auto.
 
Shiit man...Underexposed? I have no idea what that means. :haha: I did know about snow being tough to shoot good pictures of. Camera has a snow mode, but of course, I forgot about it. :whistle:

I used to remember how this camera worked and which of the 10 million settings worked for a given situation, but it's been packed away for a few months, and of course, I forgot. Again. :doah:

If you notice on some of the pictures theres a blurry spot right in the middle. I know what caused that. I set the camera on a bank about 200 yards up from the truck. The idea was to get footage of me coming up the gulley/wash. Would been awesome....if the camera hadn't slowly sunk into the snow and fallen off the side of the wash and landed under a foot of snow. I drove up just in time to see it tumble off the bank. :haha: The blurry spot is a bit of moisture that got under the lense. :whistle:

Fun times. :)
 
Yeah, tricky conditions overall. Underexposed means that the camera thought the scene was brighter than it was, so the shutter speed is too fast and the picture ends up too dark. It's not drastic though, just something I noticed.
 
What kind of dog do u have? It looks just like ours but a little bigger body and ears. Oh and that looks like a beautiful area - Thanks for sharing.
